Abstract
This review delves into the obstacles that impede the broad adoption of palliative radiotherapy (PRT) in cancer treatment and suggests measures to amplify its effectiveness and accessibility. The research underscores the significance of specialized training for palliative care experts in PRT, as well as the necessity for palliative care education for radiation oncologists. Furthermore, the proposal includes the implementation of dedicated pathways and organizational models for PRT to facilitate its seamless integration into palliative care. The article emphasizes the importance of thorough education and training to surmount these hurdles, ultimately advancing the quality of life for patients grappling with advanced cancer.
